How to open DBZ file?
The main problem with DB Zipper Compressed Database is that the DBZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that DBZ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DBZ file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install DB Zipper
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that DB Zipper is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name DB Zipper in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open DBZ files.
Programs to open DBZ file
Remember to download programs supporting DBZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DB Zipper with DBZ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DBZ file still does not use the DB Zipper program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DBZ file with the DB Zipper program.
Step 3. Update DB Zipper to the latest version
If, despite the association of the DB Zipper program with the DB Zipper Compressed Database file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Datanamic Solutions BV page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DBZ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the DBZ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DBZ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DBZ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DBZ file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DBZ file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Datanamic Solutions BV help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted DBZ files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DBZ to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the DBZ file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
